OK I just watched that episode with the birth and I agree - they are really taking the ridiculousness to new heights. Prison riot?? Followed by birth in a barn?? And then apparently they went straight home (Booth's shirt was still bloody), where all their coworkers were waiting for them. COME ON.

Truth. This show always takes the best interns away from us. Take Daisy!

At least Tina Majorino was back.

And "Champagne, because you can drink now?" Does anyone really think Bones wouldn't breastfeed?

And why in the last scene does Booth have red stains on his shirt but Brennan and the baby are all cleaned up in new outfits?

I don't care about the murders - they have become so tangential to the soap-opera that is Bones+Brennan and their entourage.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who took so much issue with the birth scene! You'd think that Bones of all people would have done her research and realized that being on her back is one of the worst positions for laboring.

And seriously, they couldn't last the ten miles to get to the hospital, but were able to stop, argue with the innkeeper, settle into the manger, and still have time before Bones started pushing?

I used to really like this show, but it's been so lackluster as of late.

This show has always been able to generate chemistry between Bones and Booth, and that is probably why many of us watch, but there was no intimacy between them in the birth scene. She just gave birth to their kid, and says "We're a family!" And he doesn't kiss her or anything. They had more chemistry burying a dead dog.

I just think Emily was embarrassed at how terrible the birth scene was.

The birth scene seemed fine to me. They showed the umbilical cord. A lot of women give birth on their backs (including me), my newest daughter had very little vernix or blood on her and often the placenta isn't immediately delivered so that didn't seem like a stretch. What had me going huh? was the whole stable thing. As in, what was the point of that?

Oh, and it is fine to drink some alcohol when you're breastfeeding. With my eldest the midwives had me drinking half a beer a day to increase my breast milk supply.

I also liked how clear they made it that home births were a safe and logical option, breastfeeding was the best choice, that women can deliver without pain medication and that they are showing the strong emotional ties that mothers and fathers have to their babies. Things that so many other shows don't even mention.

omg, the camry commercial. they are so bad at this. they could at least pretend they are trying to weave it into the show. haha, it's soooo bad.

I used to really like Bones, but it's getting really dumb. It's getting to the point that I don't care about the characters OR the case. My favorite part of the show now is seeing what wacky way someone will find the body. That part was super great last night.
